Scenario 2 - 9.5% Yield (Multiple notes) vs Stock at 6%:For this scenario we are going to use the same numbers as above the only difference we are going to be buying a new note with all of the money we get after ever year.Year 0 - 12k to buy the note Year 1 - We have 3024.24 (252.02 * 12) Year 1 - We buy a second note 3024.24 at 9.5% for 4 years -- 48 payments of $75.98.Year 2 - 3024.24 (1st note) + 911.76 (75.98 * 12 -- 2nd note)Year 2 - We buy a third note 3936 at 9.5% for 3 years -- 36 payments of $126.08.Year 3 - 3024.24 (1st note) + 911.76 ( 2nd note) + 1512.96 (126.08 * 12 -- 3rd note)Year 3 - We buy a fourth note 5,448.96 at 9.5% for 2 years -- 24 payments of $250.19.Year 4 - 3024.24 (1st note) + 911.76 ( 2nd note) + 1512.96 (3rd note) + 3002.28 (250.19 * 12 -- 4th note)Year 4 - We buy a fifth note and final 8,451,24 at 9.5% for 1 year -- 12 payments of $741.03.Year 5 - 3024.24 (1st note) + 911.76 ( 2nd note) + 1512.96 (3rd note) + 3002.28 (4th note) + 8,892.36 (741.03 * 12 -- 5th note).Total: $17,343.6 While this second scenario does outperform the 6% stock market return, it only give you a 7.64% annualized return while is better, if we implement scenario 2 in a self directed IRA where lets assume they charge you $150 every time you buy a new asset that would technically be $750 less of profit giving you a profit of $16,593.6 and a 6.7% annualized return.

One of the principal industry concerns about the vast power granted to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was that these powers were too insulated from review….The ruling sends a crystal-clear message to federal agencies that their powers are not unlimited…We would not be at this point today if government agencies were more prudent and consistent about staying within their statutory authorities, grounding their rulemakings in empirical facts, and heeding appropriate procedural safeguards…Instead, too frequently, our regulators appear to be chasing headlines and short-term political wins.”National Association of Homebuilders - “Today’s Supreme Court ruling is an important step forward to advance meaningful regulatory reform because it means that federal agencies can no longer continuously change the law – and the intent of Congress – by implementing their own interpretation of statutes as long as the interpretation is viewed as being ‘reasonable.’
